Nobody knows better than Randall that
his suggestion OF the abolition of the
whisky and tobacco tax is one which
neither the Democratic nor the Republi-
cans would father. To remove the tax
from those luxuries, and which, in the
case of whisky, at least, is under a moral
ban and leave the present tariff levering
enormous taxes upon the necessities of
life, Mr. Randall well knows no party
would attempt. So, for the sake of the
millionaire monopolies which fattenoff
the tariff, the hundred millions year OF
extra taxes will doubtless be continued.

Family IAFe Of wageworkers.

In the cities and in the large manufac-
turing villages great numbers of laborerS
of both sexes-more than half of them
young women-are gathered together.
Many of them come from the country; the
growth of the cities at the expense of the
country cgnsists largely in the removal of
the young men and women from the farm
to the cities and the factory towns, where
they find employment in the mills and
the shops. Here they are thrown together
rather rudely in their work; the boarding
houses, where most of them spend their
nights and their Sundays, afford them
none of the restraints of home; their
evenings are won't to find them on the
street and in cheap places of amusement.
Tho wages of these operatives, especially
cf the females, are as general rule very
small. In u table showing the wages
paid in forty-four different mills in Massa-
chusetts and Rhode Island find that tho
average wages paid To women was sc. 10
per week, and 10 female children $3.4l. l
am sure that the average weekly earnings
of females over 10 years of age in our fac
tories, box shops, button shops, brass
works and so forth would be less than So.
Out of this those who do not live at home
must pay for board and room, washing
and clothing What pinchmg life this
must be can be easily imagined. In tho
same communities where these girls arc
employed are numbers of young men of
their own social grade and grades little
higher, to whom marriage AMI the pos
session of a home seem, in the present
state of society, distant and not always
desirable prospect.
Such arc the conditions--the herding
together of operatives, male and female,
in places remote from their homes, with
low wages and strong temptations. Tho
moral fruits of such an exposure are not
likely to promote the founding OF perma-
nent families; the character and habits
developed in such environment are not
the best outfit for happy wedlock. An
other feature cf the life we are consider
Ing is it's lack Of perInanence. Owing TO
strikes, failures, changes of business,
operatives are continually fitting from
one place TO another. Such instability Of
life discourages the forming of families,
and often results in scattering those that
are formed. l am convinced that it is to
the Industrial conditions which l have
now in an adequate way outlined that
much of the neglect and deterioration of
family life is due. FAere are manufac-
turing communities in which these evils
have been largely overcome, through the
intelligence and good will Of the employ
ers of labor They may be overcome
everywhere. Work and Wages

Fifteenth Cep,urv POISON Makers.

The number of poison makers must
have been considerable. We came across
"Quelli dial vcncn, - who lived ON the Lago
li Garda; the famous poison brewers, Pc
ter Paul, of Padua; Master John and
Master Michele, of Vicenza, and "Nostro
fidel Vilandrino, custodian of the gardeE.
of simples at Padua. The poisons which
these masters made were of two kinds
slow poisons (''Veneni a tempop) end
rapid poisons, agd the manner of admin
stering them was various. The method
most frequently in use was either poisoned
meat or poisoned drink, and we have seen
proof made of the "Venenum edibile' and
of the tVenenum potable" upon two pigs
in the presence of the Ten. There were
other modes of poisoning, however, though
they were less commonly adopted. We
find instances of that favorite Indian re-
ceipt, pounded diamond. Again in the
year 1886, tire French ambassador relates
to the college an attempt on the life Of the
king of France bymea% of poisoned seals,
which had effectually killed three slaves
on whom they had first been tried. And
in 1409 Caterina Sforza, mistress of Forli,
which city Cesare Borgia threatened to
take from her, attempted to POISON Alex
ander vi by means of credentials which
her ambassador brought to his holiness
wrapped in scarlet cloth and placed inside
hollow cane that they may not kill the
bearers.
These are cases of poisoning by touch.
We hear also of proposals to poison by
smell; of little balls to be dropped on a
fire, and presently they will kill all who
are in the room. Nothing strikes us as
stranger about these poisons than their in
efficacy. In the year 1914 we find Villain
drino, one of the most famous masters in
his day, sent for and told that, rs the fire
at the palace had destroyed the poison,
cupboard and its receipts, he must furnish
some two or three more, and must send in
the receipts along with his new poisons.
Vilandrino produced q poisoned water;
but when this came to be tried on a cer-
tain Mustafa, he was none the worse for
it. The Ten ordered q second dose; ind
after waiting eight days with no more
satisfactory results they conclude in dis
gust that Vilandrino's water is worth
nothing, and send him back to Padua.-

aresmerisn as a Cure for Topers.

The following story comes from Sos
sons: 1t is affirmed that about {. fortnight
ago young man wPs mesmerized by one
of his friends in the presence of several
persons. After some of the usual expert
ments the magnetizer said to the patients:
II forbid you to drink wine during the
next fortnight" I" The patient was then
woke up by the magnetizer blowing in his
face, and though he is no longer in his
presence it is affirmed that he cannot
carry glass of wine to his lips. If the
gInss is filed with beer, water or any
thing else his arm will obey him and take
it to his mouth, but If it contains wine his
muscles are paralyzed.-St. james Ca
